INTERNATIONAL DAY – SMA Parish Wilton supporting Ukraine through SMA Poland.

Wilton SMA parish, since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, has responded very positively to the plight of the Ukrainian people.  Parishioners collected funds to support the SMA Fathers in Poland who have provided accommodation to Ukrainian refugees in their seminary buildings.  It was a generous gesture by our SMA brothers in Poland and we were happy to support them.  In total the parish raised €26,000.

On Sunday 4th September the parish organised an international day where the Ukrainian community were invited to participate in a day when the parish celebrated the international nature of the parish.  We were delighted to host members of the Indian, Pilipino, Eritrean, Polish, Portuguese, and Irish communities as well as the Ukrainian community.  It was a great day.
